Now this is just plain marvy. I love the concept of space freight, and the
intermodal has interested me for a long time. The warehouse with the central
loading track is spot on and incorporates something that’s big with me
now...practical playability. I can easily see ‘kids’ moving freight on and off
hover carriers, freighters etc...now that’s fun stuff.
I played with it a bit myself:
Viatrans
space semi
Standard
Container Module
This container is a little longer than yours, but I think that your shorter
version makes more sense from a stacking/moving point of view, and to allow a
greater variety of colour and cargo. The incorporation of numbers on the sides
looks excellent as well. My thought was to eventually put custom decals on the
sides as corporate logos...using some other spacers ‘corporations’.
Perhaps a container size/connection standard would be a fun thing to
explore...get some other builders designing with it in mind?
Looking forward to the other creations.
